Learn more: https://docs.apify.com/actors/running/actors-in-store.md#pay-per-event ## What's an Apify Actor? An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## BAUHAUS Product Scraper Turn any bauhaus.info search, category, or product link into structured product data. Pull price, brand, rating, availability, EAN, and the full German spec table from BAUHAUS, the German DIY and home-improvement retailer. Start from a keyword like `bohrmaschine`, a category page, or a direct product URL. Output is clean JSON or CSV, one row per product. ![How the BAUHAUS Product Scraper works](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muhamed-didovic/muhamed-didovic.github.io/main/assets/how-it-works-bauhaus.png) ### Why Use This Scraper - ✅ Three ways in: free-text keywords, category or search URLs, or direct product links, mixed in one run - ✅ Two speeds: Overview mode for fast price and rating pulls, Detail mode for the full spec table, description, EAN, and breadcrumbs - ✅ German technical specs captured as they appear on the page (e.g. `Spannweite Bohrfutter`, `Gewicht (Netto)`, `Gangzahl`), 11 to 21 rows per product - ✅ EAN / GTIN on every detail row for catalog and PIM matching - ✅ Sort by relevance, price, or topseller to grab the exact slice you want - ✅ Bot protection is handled for you: no proxies, no API keys, no browser setup - ✅ One flat row per product, ready for CSV, spreadsheets, or a database ### Overview The BAUHAUS Product Scraper is built for pricing analysts, category managers, and catalog teams who need structured product data from bauhaus.info, the German DIY and home-improvement retailer. Every run returns product rows. Whether you start from a keyword, a category page, or a single product URL, the dataset is a flat stream of products, not separate search or category records. Two modes control how much you get per product: - **Overview** (default) reads the fields shown on search and category cards: price, brand, rating, availability, and image. It is the fast, low-cost option for price tracking. - **Detail** opens each product page and adds the SKU, EAN, description, breadcrumb path, USP highlights, and the full German specification table. Some fields are naturally sparse. Products with no reviews return `null` for `rating` and `reviewCount`, unbranded items return an empty `brand`, and the `highlights` array is empty on products where BAUHAUS shows no USP badges. Those keys stay present in every row so your columns line up across the whole export. ### Supported Inputs #### Keyword mode Type what you would type in the BAUHAUS search bar, one search per line. Every result lands in the same dataset. ```json { "keywords": ["bohrmaschine", "akkuschrauber", "led lampe"] } ``` #### Start URL types Paste bauhaus.info links directly. The actor detects each one and routes it to the right handler. | Type | Pattern | Example | |---|---|---| | Category / listing page | `//c/` | `https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/c/10007754` | | Product page | `///p/` | `https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535` | Category and search-result pages are swept page by page, exactly like a keyword. Product pages (`.../p/`) are fetched directly. You can mix keywords and URLs freely in one run. ```json { "startUrls": [ "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/c/10007754", "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535" ] } ``` #### Unsupported inputs - ❌ Account, cart, or checkout pages behind the BAUHAUS login - ❌ Country sites other than bauhaus.info (for example bauhaus.at or bauhaus.ch) - ❌ Hosts outside `bauhaus.info` ### Use Cases | Audience | Use case | |---|---| | **Pricing teams** | Track BAUHAUS prices over time and react to competitor moves | | **Category & assortment managers** | Compare catalog breadth, brands, and gaps against your own range | | **Catalog / PIM teams** | Enrich product records with EAN/GTIN, specs, and descriptions | | **Market researchers** | Study the German DIY market: brands, price bands, and ratings | | **Resellers & marketplaces** | Build and refresh product feeds from a single source | ### How It Works 1. **Input** — add keywords, category or search URLs, and product URLs (any mix). 2. **Clear the bot check** — each fetch lane opens a session that passes the site's protection, then reuses it for later requests. 3. **Collect products** — keywords and category/search pages are swept in your chosen sort order until `maxItems` is reached. 4. **Enrich (Detail mode)** — each product page is opened for its SKU, EAN, description, breadcrumbs, highlights, and spec table. 5. **Output** — one product per dataset row, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or read live through the Apify API. ### Input Configuration Every field below maps one-to-one to the actor's input schema. | Field | Type | Required | Default | Notes | |---|---|---|---|---| | `keywords` | `array` | keywords or startUrls | — | Free-text BAUHAUS searches, one per line (e.g. `bohrmaschine`) | | `startUrls` | `array` | keywords or startUrls | — | Category, search, or product URLs; mix with keywords | | `scrapeMode` | `string` enum | optional | `overview` | `overview` (fast fields) or `detail` (specs, description, EAN) | | `sort` | `string` enum | optional | `relevance` | `relevance`, `price_low`, `price_high`, `topseller` | | `maxItems` | `integer` | optional | `100` | Cap across all keywords and URLs combined; free runs are capped at 25 | | `maxConcurrency` | `integer` | optional | `4` | Parallel fetch lanes, 1 to 6. Higher is faster but uses more memory | #### Common scenarios **1. Fast price pull by keyword** ```json { "keywords": ["akkuschrauber"], "scrapeMode": "overview", "sort": "price_low", "maxItems": 200 } ``` **2. Full specs from a category, cheapest first** ```json { "startUrls": ["https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/c/10007754"], "scrapeMode": "detail", "sort": "price_low", "maxItems": 100 } ``` **3. Specific products by URL** ```json { "startUrls": [ "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535" ], "scrapeMode": "detail" } ``` ### Output Overview Each dataset item is one product. The row shape depends on `scrapeMode`: - **Overview rows** carry the core fields: `productId`, `name`, `brand`, `price`, `currency`, `availability`, `rating`, `reviewCount`, `image`, `url`, and `scrapedAt`. - **Detail rows** carry everything above plus `sku`, `ean`, `description`, `breadcrumbs`, `highlights`, and `specifications`. `price` is a number and `currency` is `EUR`, so you can sum and sort without stripping symbols. `specifications` is an object of German label/value pairs taken straight from the product's spec table, so the keys vary by product category. ### Output Samples #### Overview row ```json { "scrapeMode": "overview", "productId": "11140495", "name": "Werkzeug-Gürteltasche CE-499-2SL", "brand": "", "price": 20.95, "currency": "EUR", "availability": "InStock", "rating": 5, "reviewCount": 1, "image": "https://media.cdn.bauhaus/m/179150-1/prod_medium_square.webp", "url": "https://www.bauhaus.info/werkzeugguertel/werkzeug-guerteltasche-ce-499-2sl/p/11140495", "scrapedAt": "2026-09-21T13:27:19.337Z" } ``` #### Detail row (specifications trimmed for readability) ```json { "scrapeMode": "detail", "productId": "24816535", "name": "Skil Akkuschrauber 2636 AD", "brand": "Skil", "price": 39, "currency": "EUR", "availability": "InStock", "rating": null, "reviewCount": null, "image": "https://media.cdn.bauhaus/m/541692/prod_large_square.webp", "url": "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535", "scrapedAt": "2026-09-21T13:30:58.089Z", "sku": "24816535", "ean": "8710364076215", "description": "Der Skil Akkuschrauber 2636 AD ist ein besonders handliches und kompaktes Gerät. Er eignet sich ideal zum Aufbauen von Möbeln, für kleine Montagearbeiten und für den mobilen Einsatz in Haushalt und Werkstatt ...", "breadcrumbs": [ "Produkte", "Werkzeug & Maschinen", "Maschinen", "Bohrer & Schrauber", "Akkuschrauber & Akkubohrschrauber" ], "highlights": [ "30 Tage Rückgabe – auch im Fachcentrum", "Kostenloser Rückversand", "5 Jahre Garantie für alle elektro- oder motorbetriebenen Geräte" ], "specifications": { "Bohrfutter/Werkzeugaufnahme Elektromaschine": "¼″ Innensechskant", "Gewicht (Netto)": "350 g", "Kapazität": "1,5 Ah", "Max. Drehmoment": "7 Nm", "Akkuspannung": "3,6 V", "Akkutyp": "Li-Ionen" } } ``` ### Key Output Fields #### Core (both modes) - `productId` — BAUHAUS product ID, also the trailing number in the product URL - `name`, `brand` — product title and brand (`brand` is empty on unbranded items) - `price`, `currency` — numeric price and `EUR` - `availability` — stock status token (e.g. `InStock`) - `rating`, `reviewCount` — average stars and number of reviews (`null` when a product has no reviews) - `image`, `url` — product image and the canonical product URL - `scrapedAt` — ISO timestamp for when the row was captured #### Detail mode only - `sku`, `ean` — stock-keeping unit and the EAN / GTIN barcode - `description` — the full German product description - `breadcrumbs` — category path as an array, from `Produkte` down to the leaf category - `highlights` — USP badge lines (empty array when the product shows none) - `specifications` — object of German spec label/value pairs (11 to 21 rows, keys depend on the category) ### FAQ #### Which BAUHAUS site does this cover? The German storefront at bauhaus.info. Other country domains (such as bauhaus.at or bauhaus.ch) are separate sites and are out of scope. #### What is the difference between Overview and Detail mode? Overview reads only the fields on search and category cards (price, brand, rating, availability, image), which makes it fast and cheap. Detail opens each product page as well and adds the SKU, EAN, description, breadcrumbs, highlights, and the full spec table. Use Overview for price tracking and Detail when you need specs or barcodes. #### What URLs can I paste into `startUrls`? Category and listing pages of the form `//c/`, and product pages of the form `///p/`. Search-result URLs also work and are swept like a keyword. You can mix URLs and keywords in one run. #### Do I need proxies or an API key? No. The actor clears the site's bot protection on its own. You do not supply any proxy, key, or login. #### Are `brand`, `rating`, and `highlights` always filled? No, and that is expected. Unbranded products return an empty `brand`, products with no reviews return `null` for `rating` and `reviewCount`, and `highlights` is an empty array when BAUHAUS shows no USP badges. The keys are always present so exports stay aligned. #### What is inside the `specifications` object? The product's German technical spec table, copied as label/value pairs. Expect 11 to 21 rows on most tools and machines, with keys like `Spannweite Bohrfutter`, `Gewicht (Netto)`, or `Gangzahl`. The exact keys depend on the product category, so treat it as a flexible map rather than a fixed set of columns. #### Can I scrape private or account-only pages? No. The actor reads only publicly available product, category, and search pages. Anything behind the BAUHAUS login is out of scope. #### How am I billed? This actor uses pay-per-event pricing with three events: Actor Start, one event per Overview product, and one event per Detail product. Detail runs cost more per product because they also open each product page. Exact amounts are on the actor's **Pricing** tab. #### How many products can I get, and how fast? `maxItems` caps the total across all keywords and URLs (free runs are capped at 25). Raise `maxConcurrency` (up to 6) for more speed at the cost of more memory. ### Support Found a bug or need a new field?

Detail mode adds `sku`, `ean`, `description`, `breadcrumbs[]`, `highlights[]` (can be empty), and `specifications{}` (11 to 21 German spec rows, keys vary by category). **Behaviors an agent should know:** - Always set `maxItems`; it caps total products across all keywords and URLs. Free runs are capped at 25. - `keywords` and `startUrls` run together in one dataset. Category and search URLs are swept like keywords; product URLs (`.../p/`) are fetched directly. - `scrapeMode: "overview"` is the cheapest path. Switch to `"detail"` only when you need specs, EAN, or the description. - Billing is pay-per-event: one Actor Start, plus one Overview or Detail event per product (see the Pricing tab). `rating` and `reviewCount` are `null` with no reviews; `brand` and `highlights` can be empty. - Public data only, bauhaus.info only. No login-gated pages, no other country domains. ### ⚠️ Disclaimer This Actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by BAUHAUS GmbH & Co.
